Chefs from Thailand

The Royal Budha is an award-winning Thai restaurant located in heart of Dubai. Situated on the ground floor of Holiday Inn Barsha, this restaurant is 350 meters away from metro station and also can be easily accessed through taxis and cars. The specialty of this is that it has many varieties of food selections from nonvegetarian and vegan menu. As I am vegetarian, I found lots of options to select for.

AMBIANCE/ DÉCOR of The Royal Budha – The Royal Budha has an excellent stylish seating with lovely royal pink/purple colored furnishings under the eye of a grand golden statue of Buddha. The cutlery is also unique with long spoons and forks and sparkling wine glasses. The whole ambiance is a perfect balance between stylish and authentic décor.

PHAD TAO – HOO MED MA – MUANG HIMAPAN – Wok fried mixed vegetables and Tofu with Bell peppers, Onions, Chilli paste, and crunchy cashew nuts. The colors of this dish are very appealing with lots of colorful vegetables. It is said that Thai food not only, satisfies your taste buds but also appeals your eyes too. This saying can be reflected in this dish.

CAENG KIEW WAN REU PHED PHAK TAO – HOO – The very famous mix vegetable Thai green curry consisting of coconut milk, sweet basil and Tofu is served with steamed Thai rice. I loved the spiciness of this green curry and would recommend it. A must try.

With all these main courses we ordered the very famous Papaya salad – “Sam Tum Je”. This sour salad has crispy and tangy flavors.

Delicious Raw Papaya Salad – Highly Recommended

Initially, we were served with special herbal ginger flavored welcome drink with Vegetable Thai styled fritters. (Complimentary). For non-vegetarians they serve prawn crackers as complimentary tidbits.

The decor in this restaurant is so beautiful! I visited Dubai over 10 years ago but I’m sure so many new restaurants started after that. And the city has grown enormously since then. Food looks delicious too, I am a big fan of Thai food. I will definitely remember this place if I go bak to Dubai.
